Smarter security, shaped around your home
From everyday app control to a property with gates and outbuildings, the details matter.
01Smart-home control
Check compatible cameras, manage your alarm and receive useful alerts through the manufacturer apps for the equipment we install.
02Doors, gates and family access
Discuss keyless entry, controlled gates and access for family or visitors. Available functions depend on the system selected for your property.
03Rural homes and outbuildings
Driveways, detached garages and outbuildings need a plan of their own. We assess coverage, lighting and connectivity around the property.
04An existing system to look after
Already have cameras or an alarm? We can assess the installation and explain suitable maintenance, takeover or upgrade options.
What happens when a monitored alarm activates?
Professional monitoring is optional. If you choose it, your intruder alarm connects to our monitoring partner’s NSI Gold certified Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC), with a response plan agreed for your property.
01 Visible deterrence
A visible alarm sounder or camera shows that security has been considered. The right combination starts with a survey of your home.
02 Detection at your home
When the alarm is set, its configured detectors identify a qualifying activation. The detection and verification available depend on the system.
03 Signal to the partner ARC
For a monitored intruder alarm, qualifying signals travel over the agreed connection to our monitoring partner’s NSI Gold certified Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC).
04 Operator assessment
The partner ARC assesses the available information and follows the response plan agreed for your property. Verification depends on the equipment installed.
05 Your contact plan
The partner ARC follows the agreed contact and escalation list. Keep your nominated contacts up to date so the plan remains useful.
06 Agreed response
Response follows the agreed arrangements. Police attendance is not automatic and depends on eligibility, confirmation and applicable requirements.
Advanced Overwatch also operates its own 24-hour CCTV Monitoring Control Room for video monitoring. It is separate from the partner ARC that receives intruder alarm signals.

Your home security questions, answered
How much does a home CCTV system cost?
The cost depends on the number of cameras, image quality, cabling, recording and the features you need. We provide a free survey and an itemised quote so you can review the options before deciding.
What is the difference between wired and wireless cameras?
Wired cameras use a cable connection, while Wi-Fi cameras depend on a suitable wireless signal. Some wireless models still need a power cable; battery-powered models need charging or an appropriate power source. We assess coverage, power and reliability before recommending a system. Read our wired and wireless CCTV guide.
Do I need alarm monitoring?
Monitoring is optional. App alerts let you keep an eye on supported systems yourself. Professional intruder monitoring is provided by our monitoring partner’s NSI Gold certified Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC), which follows the response plan agreed for your property. Video monitoring is provided separately from our own 24-hour CCTV Monitoring Control Room.
Can I view my cameras from my phone?
Yes, with a compatible system and an internet connection. We configure the manufacturer app for the equipment installed and explain live viewing, recordings and supported notifications. The functions available depend on the cameras and recording system selected. Read our remote-viewing guide.
How long is footage kept?
Retention depends on the recorder capacity, number of cameras, recording quality and settings. We explain the recording period and any available backup options for your proposed system, then agree a suitable setup with you.
Is my home CCTV private, and what about my neighbours?
We plan camera views and available privacy masks around what you need to cover. Where cameras record beyond your property boundary, data-protection rules can apply. Read the ICO’s home CCTV guidance for your responsibilities.
